Inseparable Sword is a Greatsword in Elden Ring. It is the choice weapon of D, Hunter of the Dead and staunch believer in Golden Order Fundamentalism. The Inseparable Sword scales primarily with StrengthDexterity and Faith and is a good Weapon for Faith Builds. 

 

Sword forged by compounding silver and gold. A sacred weapon to hunt Those Who Live in Death.
Deals holy damage.

The inseparable twins found solace in the Golden Order, the only institution not to revile them as accursed beings.

 

Where to Find Inseparable Sword in Elden Ring

The Inseparable Sword weapon can be found at the following location:

  • Prince of Death's Throne, after giving D's brother D's Twinned Armour. You must have killed Lichdragon Fortissax in Fia's Dream and received the Mending Rune of Death. [Map Link]
  • Additionally, Fia can be killed here and after resting at a site of grace the sword will appear along with D and Fia's armor sets.
  • can be acquired slightly earlier if you kill D when he appears in Limgrave, close to the Summonwater Village Outskirts. Doing this allows you to give his armor to his brother in Siofra Aqueduct and after reloading the area, the brother will be hostile to you. Kill him to get the Inseparable Sword and Twinned Armor back. This does not break Fias questline.

  • Inseparable Sword can be upgraded by using Somber Smithing Stones
  • This weapon, alongside the Banished Knight's Greatsword and Knight's Greatsword features an alternate Greatsword moveset with unique two-handed R1 attacks. This moveset is drawn from Dark Souls 2's Mirrah Greatsword and Dark Souls 3's Hollowslayer Greatsword. 
  • The Inseparable Sword is the only greatsword that is placed on the hip when sheathed.
  • Deals +20% damage to undead icon 40px Undead type enemies and prevents Skeletons from reviving
  • At 80 Faith has the highest Attack Rating of all Holy Damage dealing Greatswords, if you have not invested in Strength or Dexterity much.

      I had a dream where this sword had the lasers from Euphoria as its skill...And it did 99999999 damage to Morgot. It was a weird dream though.

        Nasty at higher levels when you can pump all 3 stats. Only outdone by Blasphemous Blade in terms of pure AR... But what FTH weapon isn't!?
        Still works better to deal with enemies weak to Holy!

          This weapon does an innate 20% more damage to undead. It's skill Sacred Blade can be buffed with the other following skills/AoWs: Last Rites, Light, Darkness, Sacred Order. Last Rites, Light and Darkness can be cast from their respective weapon then swapped out and their buffs will still remain. Using all that you can pop a flask of tears using the Bloodsucking tear and Holy tear. Have equipped the Holy Scorpion Charm, Shard of Alexander, and the Ritual Sword Talisman. In your offhand use the Light skill then swap to use the Darkness skill then swap to use the Sacred Order skill. In your main hand use the Last Rites skill then finally swap it to the Inseparable Sword where you use Sacred Blade. With this I one shot both the Death Rite Birds in the snowy region. DLC is about to be a breeze

            Missed this on my first playthrough but got on ng+ and it’s all I’ve been using in the dlc… absolutely perfect to me. 14fp w carian filigree talisman lets me spam the projectile as well. Just a solid workhorse kind of sword that I seem to mesh with very well, I’m barely taking damage anymore which is a far cry from my first dlc run, sword is a great size, weight and speed and gets the job done with ease.. for me at least

              Probably the strongest holy weapon smaller than a greataxe for faith builds when at high levels. It gets around 850 ar in my build (22 str 40 dex 80 fai), and that's before sacred blade! But the best thing is its aspect, looks beautiful. Recommend against deadbird

                If you kill D early to get his armor and sword, and give it to his brother later, will brother D still kill Fia at the end of her questline? Also, can you still learn D's incantations by doing this? I want to still be able to get Fia's set after killing Fortissax and the only way to do that is to have brother D kill her, since she is in a state unkillable by the player after you kill Fortissax, but brother D can still kill her if you give him the armor after defeating Fortissax.

                  Absolutely insane to me that this sword is a better Golden Order Greatsword in almost every way. Really highlights how badly that sword was shafted.

                    Absolutely love this thing! Saved my ass in DLC cause half the stuff there has negative holy resistance (or at least close to 0)

                      Don’t know what people are talking about head shot wise it’s the best against undead bird bosses or undead dragon. The undead dragons in DLC are a joke if using this

                        i can confirm that you can get the sword even if you didnt give D's armor to his twin. just kill fortissax, then go to him and give the set. reload gias area and hell do his speech vs fia again. kill him to get the set back + the sword

                          Though disappointing, it makes sense why this has no int scaling: D is a fanatic, not a scholar. Where most other fundamentalists study the Golden Order, the D twins run on blind faith, worshipping the Golden Order and obeying its laws without question. Hence the very high fth scaling and no int.

                            I don't know why this didn't get sacred order. Like, it wouldn't be an incredible weapon, but it's more fun when killing the undead.

                              Awful range, no unique AoW, and terrible scaling to top it all off.

                              Could be an awesome weapon for a Str/Fai build but there's realistically no reason to ever use it over KGS. Sad.

                              • This thing absolutely SLAPS in the DLC. So much stuff is weak to Holy and there is a quite a number of Undead mobs including all the dragons. Sacred blade is a solid AoW , i just wish it had an unique follow up on this weapon.

                                  should have had aow sacred blade that looks like glinstone arc, simple recolor, changing a couple of parameters

                                    I know it’s not meta. I know it doesn’t have a unique AoW, and it isn’t very long. But I can’t help that I just love it, and IMO, my character looks hella sexy using it.

                                      the fact you either have to wait until almost the end of the game or kill D for no reason the first time you meet him to get this weapon makes me sad...

                                        Compared to a sacred KGS, it's only slightly stronger while being way shorter. And compared to a sacred BKGS, it's just worse. And to compensate, it has a bonus against undead, as if you can't just equip a dagger with shared order in one of your weapon slots.

                                        From should buff this, it needs help. Considering how short it is and how sheathed it rests on your side, how about giving it the straight sword one-handed R1s and R2s? That would be amazing.

                                        • this + golden epitaph + an erdtree seal with barrier of gold (since most undead enemies deal magic damage), order healing, golden vow, and an aoe healing spell = ultimate undead destroyer build
                                          add sacred scorpion, spelldrake talisman, and shard of alexander (or the warrior jar shard if you're impatient and wanna try this build earlier) for maximum effect
                                          also feel free to use other holy incants too, having a shield with carian retaliation is also helpful for undead sorcerers

                                            Despite what the scalings would imply, this weapon can actually find a niche on Str/Fai and Dex/Fai as opposed to pure faith.

                                            On my 54 Str/18 Dex/50 Faith character, the AR on this sword is a solid 30 or so higher than a sacred BKGS, and they both have the same amount of holy damage. Using an AR calculator a dex/faith focused split yields similar results.

                                            In PvP, this weapon has a true combo that if buffed with the sword of light, sacred blade (getting off both is fairly easy in a dual) and the two handed talisman, can take upwards of 70% Health from a 60 Vigor opponent. Since this set up is all about combo damage the inseparable sword is actually the better choice here than the banished knights. Also the speed buff to the sweeping R2 is great for this weapon when paired with empty jumps.

                                            Its a shame that such a cool looking weapon got stuck with such an uninspiring AOW, at least this is one of few uninfusuble weapons with no unique skill that justifies its existence on a build.

                                              gave D's bro the armour, beat the gargs, rode the coffin up, get to Fia, beat her simps and then stabbed her. rest at the nearby grace and the sword and the armour is next to where Fia was

                                                This thing's pretty decent. Wish it got A scaling in Faith or maybe just a bit more damage on the AoW... well, you take what you can get. Nice moveset at least!

                                                  The way bullet ashes scale, the arc this shoots should have a scaling multiplier that is >2.5 times better than an infused ash. Un-upgraded base faith scaling on this is .65, while infused single stat ashes use .25

                                                    The weapon skill deal less damage to regular enemies compared to the AoW version(with the same upgrade level, Sacred Infusion and Faith stat invesetment) but deal more damage to undead enemies because the 20% innate boost against undead work on weapon skill as well.

                                                    • I was testing Inseparable Sword against Freyja's Greatsword in Limgrave and found that the beam from Sacred Blade on this thing hits for a bit less than the Sacred Blade AoW applied to other weapons. At 60 Faith and without any boosting talismans, the difference was about 30 less damage compared to Iron Greatsword, Freyja's Greatsword, Noble's Slender Sword (894 vs. 924). Bizarre.

                                                      Haven't tested hitting with the blade and beam simultaneously. Maybe that makes up for it—not sure.

                                                        If they made the weapon skill chargeable that would set it apart from the sacred blade ash of war, it would get a damage boost from godfrey icon and it would make it more flexible when attacking with the skill.

It feels great to use, the Holy damage buff suits this weapon really well (in terms of usefulness and appearance) and it fits in with the whole Undead Remover theme. I like it. It's my favorite Faith weapon in the game by far.

                                                                                • A Sacred Blade Gargoyle's Greatsword largely performs better than this at 80 fth/40 dex? I'm not sure where I'm going wrong with that but oh well

                                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                                    1. Kill D at Limgrave.
                                                                                    2. Kill Radahn.
                                                                                    3. Travel to Siofra Aquaduct
                                                                                    4. Give the armor set to twin
                                                                                    5. Reload area
                                                                                    6. Kill D

                                                                                    • Anonymous

                                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                                        This is what I like to call a utility greatsword, along with sacred relic sword, blasphemous blade and sword of milos. Sure you can main this weapon, but why, just use it to trivialize undead encounters like god intended.

                                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                                          This thing absolutely destroys Death Birds and Death Rite Birds. Combine with Shard of Alexander and you can easily kill the early game birds in 2 head hits and the later ones in 3-4. Don't know the math when further combined with sacred scorpion charm or holy cracked tear but it's probably ridiculous. Auto-take to trivialize any area with skeletons.

                                                                                          • The stat requirements are a bit 'ugh'. It's basically a pure faith weapon. The 18 str/dex make it a bit undesireable. You are halfway through making a quality build, while the sword barely benefits from these stats. Another weapon for the 'if you really want very weird looking stat allocation for your build' category. I don't like this.

                                                                                            • Anonymous

You can get it and upgrade it to +9 before even entering the altus plateu. You will obliterate every enemy with it, even those resistant to holy damage. This is my first faith walkthrough in the game and i must admit that this sword was the main reason i made my first faith build. Looks amazing and hits like a train.

                                                                                                • Anonymous

It's kinda nuts for undead enemies

                                                                                                      • Anonymous

In fact, I killed Fia in front of Godwyn, gave D's brother the armor set, went back to Godwyn and the sword (& armor) were just lying there to loot.

                                                                                                          As far as I know, it's the only greatsword that does this.

(I'm not sure but it's seems to deal almost same amount of damage while also having strong attack chop have insane attack multiplier...) though still best optio to kill skeletons and undead...

                                                                                                                But the dripppp…
